Recommended in the Brandon/Hill selected list of print books and journals for the small medical library - April 2001 & 2003 Open MRI is the first and only how-to book on this much in demand scanning procedure - a technology that gives patients a fast, high quality scan without the anxiety or discomfort of traditional MRI. Dr. Rothschild is acknowledged as the top name in this field, and he has recruited contributors who have pioneered the development and use of open MRI. These experts guide the reader through general considerations, instrumentation, physics, artifacts, protocol development, clinical applications, and future trends - enabling radiologists and technologists to use open MR units with ease and success. More than 600 illustrations complement the text
